Colorado coach Deion Sanders condemned the threats that have been directed toward Colorado State safety Henry Blackburn after Blackburn's late hit on Travis Hunter Saturday night.
"Henry Blackburn is a good player who played a phenomenal game,"."He made a tremendous hit on Travis along the sideline. You can call it dirty, you can call it he was just playing the game of football. But whatever it was it does not constitute that he should be receiving death threats. This is still a young man trying to make it in life. A guy that's trying to live his dream and hopefully graduate with honors and a degree, committed to excellence and go to the NFL.
After the game, Sanders said that Hunter would be out a few weeks and was certain to miss the No. 19 Buffaloes’ Week 4 game against No. 10 Oregon. Per multiple reports Monday, Hunter had been diagnosed with a lacerated liver after the hit. Sanders appeared to acknowledge the diagnosis in his news conference when he was asked if Hunter having a lacerated liver would affect when he returns to the field. Sanders simply said “no sir” to the question.
Hunter has been the most dynamic player in college football through the first three weeks of the season with his play on both sides of the ball. The former top recruit has started at both wide receiver and cornerback for the Buffaloes and has 16 catches for 213 yards on offense and nine tackles and an interception on defense.
Sanders said Tuesday that Hunter is irreplaceable and that the Buffaloes will be looking for multiple people to step up in his absence. "We're looking for the next man up. We're looking for someone else to step up and take control of this … We have talent, we just have to get the talent to be talented and get to do what they're capable of doing. But there's no one in the country that can fill Travis Hunter's shoes.
